Every one of these "production shell companies" that Thiel and them finance each have a marketing budget. That budget goes to click farms and they don't just promote the project, they drive engagement by pissing people off and everyone keeps falling for the fake negativity.

Ya'll don't have to be weird, aggressive and insincere anymore. Just say thinkgs that you really care about and we'll actually get workers rights reforms and honest management of public goods.

I left my wallet at my bodega. got it back with cash in it. I lady I never met before and never will kindly demanded I get rung out before her even though I got out of the line to find something at the grocery store. If you stop letting twitter set the tone for your life, you'll see how you're surrounded by kindness.

Stop getting angry over fake comments and start feeling optimist that most of us are actually nice people when we're not on the internet.

      Why not just ignore the negative parts and appreciate the positive? I am actively trying to shake my own internal negativity. You realize the algorithms DO work. They change out how we feel based on the input material we take in. But what if we don't have to take EVERY piece of it in the same way?

      Do you think I'm being funded by a rightwing influence peddling, money laundering conservative think take? If not, there's no reason to pretend any of the bad parts of what I'm saying are actually going to matter.
